AGROCALIDAD Regulations: Prepare vaccinations and documents correctly
AGROCALIDAD is the competent authority in Ecuador responsible for regulating entry requirements for animals. Compliance with these regulations is crucial to avoid issues upon entry. A key requirement is the veterinary health certificate, which must be issued no more than 10 days prior to arrival. This certificate must confirm that your pet is healthy and has received all required vaccinations. According to cucarecu.de, a rabies vaccination is mandatory and must have been administered at least 14 days before entry.
In addition to the rabies vaccination, other vaccinations for dogs and cats are required. Dogs need vaccinations against distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, and parvovirus, while cats must be vaccinated against feline panleukopenia, viral rhinotracheitis, and calicivirus. A parasite treatment within 21 days prior to entry is also necessary. It is important that your veterinarian documents all these treatments in the health certificate. The zoosanitary export certificate is another important document that you need.
Your pet must also be clearly identifiable, either by a microchip, tattoo, or name. The animal must be at least 3 months old to be allowed entry. You must notify AGROCALIDAD 72 hours before arrival. Upon arrival, a fee of $26.93 will be charged for the inspection. Strict adherence to these regulations is crucial for a smooth process. We at GoMovin are happy to assist you in compiling all necessary documents and meeting the deadlines. For more information on customs regulations, please visit our website.
Flight and Transport: How to Safely Travel with Your Pets to Ecuador
The transport of your pets to Ecuador requires careful planning, especially if you are travelling by plane. Make sure to inform yourself early on about the airline's regulations regarding the transport of animals. Some airlines allow the transport of smaller pets in the cabin, while larger animals must be transported in the cargo hold. It is important that you obtain a fitness-to-fly certificate from your vet to ensure your pet is suitable for the flight.
The IATA guidelines (International Air Transport Association) set the standards for the safe transport of animals. Ensure that your pet's transport box complies with these guidelines. The box must be sufficiently large, sturdy, and well-ventilated. Place familiar items like a blanket or a toy in the box to provide your pet with a sense of security. If you are driving by car to a port to then travel to Ecuador, make sure that pet passports are valid for all transit countries, as described on nicolas-kreutter.com. A comfortable, collapsible box and regular breaks with water and food are essential.
During long transports, it is important to keep the stress for your pet as low as possible. Acclimatise your pet to the transport box early and use positive reinforcement to associate the box with pleasant experiences. Sedatives should only be used in emergencies and upon consultation with your vet. We at GoMovin are happy to advise you on choosing the right means of transport and preparing your pet for the journey. Further tips on stress minimisation can be found on dl-umzugsservice.de.
Preparation is everything: How to get your pet used to the move
